Start-up fund for Ramon: reopening a roadside café after the demolition of the market

For four years I have run a roadside café in Caloocan. In August, the demolition of the market took an espresso machine and grinder. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Saturday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 12 weeks. This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment. Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item. Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go. Where the $300 goes: • Working capital for the first month: $130 • Shop repairs and licensing: $90 • Initial stock: coffee and pastries: $80 Every share and every dollar helps.
